Rachel McLachlan (con Nelson)
Some wonderful phase play from Scotland off the lineout which culminates in a beautiful offload out the back of the hand of Chloe Rollie.
That puts openside Rachel McLachlan over in the corner and Helen Nelson nails a brilliant touchline conversion to open the Scotland lead to seven points with an hour on the clock.
Scotland 12-12 Ireland
Excellent work from Scotland hooker Lana Skeldon as she wins a turnover penalty. The kick puts the hosts almost up to the Irish 22 on the left.
Scotland 12-12 Ireland
Ireland look to take advantage of the extra space and they make ground through a break by Brittany Hogan.
However, as they try to go wide right, the final pass can't connect and it will be a Scotland lineout midway inside their own half.

There was head contact there, and it'll go to review, but I think there might be some mitigation.
Certainly it was a try on the angle we were given.
Scotland 12-12 Ireland
To add insult to injury, Rhona Lloyd has been sin-binned for a head on head tackle on Amee-Leigh Costigan. Lloyd is actually already off for an HIA meaning they cannot replace her!
Linda Djougang
It is indeed third time lucky for the Ireland tight head! A break from second row Ruth Campbell gets Ireland on the front foot and they go through their phases before Djougang gets her try having been held up twice in the first half.
It's a rare miss off the tee from Dannah O'Brien meaning we are level ten minutes into the second half.
Scotland 12-7 Ireland
Quite incredibly, Linda Djougang is held up over the line for the third time today! However, the TMO will have a look at the grounding...

A change at loose head for Scotland as Anne Young replaces Leah Bartlett. Stacey Flood also comes on the wing for Vicky Elmes-Kinlan for Ireland.
Meanwhile, Evie Gallagher doesn't roll away at the ruck which allows Ireland to send a kick into touch between the 10 metre line and 22.
Scotland 12-7 Ireland
Some miscommunication at the back from Ireland as Vicky Elmes-Kinlan spills the ball after colliding with Aoife Corey.
A very new two thirds of the Irish back three with the former making her first start and the latter her full debut. It means a Scottish scrum in the Irish half.
Scotland 12-7 Ireland
Ireland are continuing to knock on the door but are penalised at the ruck 10 metres from the Scottish line. That allows Helen Nelson to clear her lines.

Back underway at The Hive as Ireland kick off playing right to left.

Lisa Martin
Former Scotland captain on BBC Scotland
It's been really nervy for both teams, there's a lot on the line.
Scotland are looking to redeem themselves and Ireland are looking to cement third place.
A lot of handling inaccuracies that you just don't expect from either of these teams.

Emma Orr, who we said at the start was going to be a real impact player, has shown exactly why she's one to talk about.
There was a lot of sustained pressure on the Scotland line, a lot of the Ireland power game, but defensively Scotland really stood up and managed to hold up Linda Djougang twice.

What a remarkable end to the first-half.
Ireland were banging at the door and it looked only a matter of time before they broke through, but that intercept from Sarah Bonar (how many second row interceptions do you see?) flipped everything.
Scotland did really well to keep their composure and it was a terrific finish from Emma Orr.

Absolutely huge try for Scotland and a real show of their desire to get this win today.

Scotland 12-7 Ireland
Ireland dominated the ball and came close to adding to their lead near the end of the half. However, that late stunner from Scotland means they lead at the interval.
Emma Orr (con Nelson)
Wow! Scotland bite back right on the half-time whistle. An interception and kick ahead from second row Sarah Bonar was desperately recovered right on her own line from HIA replacement Eve Higgins.
The clock was in the red but Dannah O'Brien chose to put distance on her kick and misses touch. Scotland run it back and Emma Orr spots a gap to get over. Helen Nelson adds the extras to put the hosts ahead at half-time.
Scotland 5-7 Ireland

These little moments are so important at international level.
Lisa Thomson making amends there and she's really got the bit between her teeth.

Linda Djougang is held up again! Lisa Thomson atones for her indiscretion as she gets between the ball and the turf over the line.
Scotland 5-7 Ireland
A reprieve for Ireland as the TMO spots a push off the ball by Lisa Thomson on her opposite number 12 Enya Breen.
Ireland put the ball into the corner for a five-metre lineout. Breen will become the latest in a green shirt to exit for an HIA.
